The Tektronix P6616 general-purpose logic probe connects the Tektronix MSO/DPO5000 Series and MSO4000B Series of mixed-signal oscilloscopes to digital buses and signals on your target system.

This unique probe design offers two eight-channel pods. Each channel ends with a probe tip featuring a recessed ground for simplified connection to the device under test. The coax on the first channel of each pod is colored blue making it easy to identify. The common ground uses an automotive-style connector making it easy to create custom grounds for connecting to the device under test. When connecting to square pins, the P6616 has an adapter that attaches to the probe head extending the probe ground flush with the probe tip so you can attach to a header. The P6616 offers outstanding electrical characteristics, having only 3 pF of capacitive loading, a 100 kΩ input resistance, and is capable of acquiring toggle rates >500 MHz and pulses as short as 1 ns in duration.

The probe contains 16 data channels split between two lead sets. The first lead in each set is identified by blue insulation, and the remaining seven leads are gray. All leads include a ground connection at the tip. You can connect the probe leads separately to the target system, or group the leads together using the probe tip holders.

The Tektronix P6616 is part of the MSO/DPO4000B Mixed Signal Oscilloscope Series. You can analyze up to 20 analog and digital signals with a single instrument to quickly find and diagnose problems in complex designs. Bandwidths up to 1 GHz and a minimum of 5X oversampling on all channels ensure you have the performance you need to see fast-changing signal details. To capture long windows of signal activity while maintaining fine timing resolution, the MSO/DPO4000B Series offers a deep record length of 20M points standard on all channels.
